HIV Hospice Thailand
Tsuyoshi Mogi
,,, Motasai (motorcycle taxi), the arrival at the hotel soon.
Take a rest, I began to move. I want to unable to locate the orphanage betimes.
Initially, as a way to find the orphanage, I was thinking of strategy as follows.
First go to city hall or something, find a man who can speak English. I will explain the situation and get examined.
For example goo and Mora are taught how to go while you're at it, explain the location of the driver of Motasai.
For me, there was an acquaintance of people do not know Thailand had become out of touch contacts for nearly 10 years, Mr Somumyatto however. Result of this, it has used many ways, but I was able to meet again in Bangkok lucky.
So, send the URL of the site of the orphanages was written in Thai, Som Mr. Cat, he had my fix sent by e-mail address in English.
<Mr. Som cat was reunited in Bangkok>
Mr. Som Cat, but the reply came on the eve of departure Ratchathani Udon Thani, in it, there was also accompanied by a map of Thai was on the site.
I got the address correct in English, but there is also a Thai map. I wonder if it might become if this somehow? Well, in the worst case, you should I visit the city hall.
I asked at the front of the hotel is not proficient in English mostly, show that you print out the map from the site, I,,, and, but first I want to go here.
Then, as I knew it. Well, it was good! Apparently, it's like you can not go walking distance but very.
By checking whether the taxi go by how much, I decided to get called. Because it was a few hundred yen. And taxi, motorbike taxi of course. No the car and taxis, also should be expected.
Tweet while riding on the back of the Motasai ride as soon as I started sprinting, "shit, if you do not have such life Tsu accident" that was leaking from my mouth involuntarily.
I'm feeling like riding a roller coaster. On the go through between the car in sprinting is no helmet.
Motasai enters the country road eventually relented and the national highway. After continued to run for a while, I was parked in front of the facilities such as schools.
I finally arrived
I gesture to convey Motasai, and, I want you to wait here.With a rough face, in gesture, that over there, give me the money.
Reluctantly, passing the amount that was determined in advance, I went into the site.
Looking back to the sound of the bike, the bike I was about to go away. I went to the gesture that whip, waiting for us or did not myself understood, because there are children who are infected with HIV. I do not know it. I was sure that it has lost the only means that I get back in this, however.
Well it can not be helped. It's going to be something. To Motasai, the sweet expectation did not have from the beginning.
The grounds and go further, I came to the place where women and children are sitting in the garden.
I was relieved and a little place, you should be still were not wrong.
I soon noticed a woman, but I've been approached with a smile. I was calling out "someone, someone who understands English? Whether" and. Then, please wait a moment. Said, I called, he brought Sister Thais.
Maybe, I explained the reason why I came here I wonder if it was church-related facilities, but I think so here, and that I should listen to Anyway.
I want to let me if there is that and. Was come wanted to let me hear the story is who is doing that Uni I ", the International NGO.'s About this facility can help you something. '
Furthermore, "it is a little, brought donations," and I was told that he was not interested in simply come by intention. Live at a charity that was done in a place called "Ichinan" at the end of the year, but I had brought the money that I received from everyone in the audience.
On that will serve tea, asked about the identity of here, sister, who answered my many questions.
<Founder / left. / Sister right. >
Number of children that the 69 people present, 30 of them are infected with HIV. Children who are infected must take medicine every day and also staff, 15 people.
Circumstances that come in a variety of children were brought to, and often do not know. Was, that if there are some healthy people, and some of the mentally retarded child.
In addition, there is no assistance from the government, management relies on donations only. Rather than donations from abroad, and by the Thais.
Do you have grow to be Christians? No, my question that has been raised as a Buddhist children. I mean, not to be allowed to convert to Christianity.
How long are you Sister? I heard that, I was sent to the church me here five years ago. Her answer was that this facility is first created, it is a Christian is returned.
After that, we were able to become that will guide the children in the facility, look around a lot is the hand to two children.
<Building was donated by the Embassy of Japan>
<I also have a farm>
<Room for infants>
<Had been attached Christmas card>
<There was a playground>
Children who grew up as an orphan (including orphans'm mental) are hungry for physical contact without exception.
While I have been guided by the hand to the children, in their hands, feel the "hunger" until their sad, I did not mind that chest pain.
There was so much that was worrisome. It would be too obedient children. Do you say that there is no ambition somehow if to say,,,.
For a moment, I thought, how because of illness. It looks like it'll be even something of slum children, children under all circumstances, mischievous laugh, it'd be full of power, such as to burst though.
The reason is that, I think I know but has somehow later.
Confused by the difference in educational philosophy
Do you accept volunteers? The question was to become volunteers to play with the children and are welcome at any time.
The volunteers come from abroad? I heard that they will continue to stay I stayed three days to a week. Japanese volunteers gave us and teaching origami to children. It was recently and have not seen but had come until three years ago.
When I heard the following words of Sister, I ended up at a loss for an answer.
The volunteers who came from abroad "are not we follow the rules we will not. Us, when you can not hear what you say or that a child is bad, stick as punishment I hit with.
Such as the French people, so this is not acceptable. Since this is our culture, to volunteer abroad, you will need to have to accept this, however. '
I did not know what to do reply.
I, there was a theory that was about to write their own early childhood education at the time of the 20s actually. It, he was as far from corporal punishment, the child is that, grow without using any negative word.
Even if you do not know the words yet in, children, even adult repeats the only explanation. And that is what the kids like crazy praise, that, grown in only positive words.
In addition, (for example, watching gently also, play physical contact, together) require that they unconsciously have children I give as much as possible.
It is something without putting any artificial negativity received from their parents and adult world, not to leave only positive unconscious children, referred to as "the effort as much as possible," in other words.
's There is a thorough Seizensetsu. If you put only positive without a negative, the Buddha of that man originally named, should have been sensible to our children, and it is the basic idea that is.
Any child also, "Life. Born that was good'm such a good thing", I'm just want you to think so short.
Only when a child can unconsciously, imprinting positive thoughts and images as much as possible to life, adults can be given to children, because it is a property not only because the largest.
However, it is not without problems even this method of teaching. How it depends on whether you are in (rebellious phase) and that the spiritual strength that we need to practice equivalent to adult, adolescent children require paternity? And the like.
In fact, the adult side grow, but must be switched to the wind called the extrinsic to adolescence to early childhood children are also, let be inherent in their paternity, this is a such a difficult technique too. (For my educational theory, I'd also argue again, if there is another chance)
That aside, I'm a human being with such an idea, it is a word that has lost back to the story of Sister.
In boarding schools and orphanages run by the Church in Europe, there is an image that will impress upon him the discipline strictly referred to as a discipline with corporal punishment. It just would not be in the image. I really think so.
Maybe there is such a trend, or here. Maybe it was possible in the past, the French volunteers saw that scene, they criticized the corporal punishment of maybe. I've thought so.
Nevertheless, there is no sin but to the children. After that, I donate money I received from everyone in the audience at a charity Live.
They were surprised to learn that you decide to come to leave an address I do not even know, came to visit from Bangkok by plane and bus make connections. (There were seems dubious) and know that I do not have the means to go back to the hotel, he sent me in the car.
I finished one of the mission of the money donated to HIV-related orphan who gathered did at the end of the year, at a charity LIVE. I was relieved. But breast was still sore.
Healed street stalls Yasoton
After returning to the hotel to explore the city of Yasoton, I went looking for a street stall to eat. The middle of the walk, I got lost, people have looked like policeman, took me and put me on the bike.
<Had been lost, he took me on board after>
<Temple of the night, light up>
<Night shop>
<Stand you're doing with your family. I copied the husband,,,>
<Nephew called his wife, and also put you>
<I was to be reflected in all. , Even the warmth that was heart-warming, I was healed>
I drank beer in the stalls. The first bite was Horonigaka~tsu.But the air of mysterious healing stalls rural Thailand have, I went wrapped soon.

Good for nothing, the general public is "survival techniques" Travel
Caught without a decent sleep, I greeted the dawn. The main cause was the onslaught of mosquitoes. I had forgotten to bring mosquito coils from Japan.
However, he stayed a cheap hotel in Southeast Asia, mosquito coil made in Japan was essential. I did it in spite of himself.
The cause of the itch, at first I thought it was only the most insect or Nanjing. Such that, in the cheap hotel in Southeast Asia of the past, because there was a mom before. But now things like that and I think I will not indeed,,,.
As an aside, first, the case of the anti-insect, it is laid on the bed a thin plastic sheet. If you sleep on it lay a sheet of bringing, for example, only the bed is not coming up, I'm perfectly okay.
Here and now, where hung storyteller of survival techniques of travel like this, not as it were to the person who was told, a story like "? With., Really? Huh", what would it matter how it Well I wonder,,,.
Departure after breakfast
Kayuka~tsu in the middle of the night because it was too, "maybe a ~ What if I were not? Hives" I was so grief enters the mode for a moment, and.
However, mosquitoes can be heard at dawn, he was relieved to know the cause of the itch. itch disappears where (myself relieved by such ← was a little sad) 's, I was relieved, because I'm putting to sleep nor smoothly.
After all, but I began to get up from the still dark, thanks to the gym two or mind training, I was still a normal healthy.(Ladies and gentlemen, It is ~ 2 care training is recommended)
So, as soon as breakfast Ya rounded up in the middle of the manuscript, I learned how to get the AIDS hospice uncle of the inn, he went to the temple Pabanapu.
The distance to go that it temple Pabanapu of interest on foot, was my belief at all. First, go to the foot by bus, it was the place where change comes not go to (motorbike taxi) from there Motasai.
Or me to write it on a piece of paper kindly for me you do not know the Thai language, uncle of the guest house, and show to the Motasai, they parked the bus to direction over there, he walked me to tell the conductor your destination for me.
<Central kind uncle. Family-run guest house>
I ran out of the city for a while. Came close, the conductor told me kindly. Rustic is ~ such kind.
After getting off the bus, I spoke to (motorcycle taxi) Motasai that hang out on the street. Tell your destination, and I got into the rear of the bike. Motasai is, everything seemed to be OK.
While looking at the field to the right, he rushed on him Motasai the top of the mountain. I parked at the entrance to the mountain soon. Here seems somehow. There's even a checkpoint ostentatious, the doorkeeper, to what did you come from? Be heard.
"Monk" development is unusual in Theravada Buddhism (along Umi-hatsu)
When I explained the situation, call the cart gatekeeper of electric vehicles, he put it to me. And took me to the office.Somehow, I must look amazing place.
Information I have read several books, in books on here was about 10 years old. If I try to, on an image that was received from the book, here was that the Buddhist version of "House of the person waiting for death," Mother Teresa was made in Calcutta.
To tell you the truth, though it say anything like this Well, there is no thought Basically, (this also enters the Thai Buddhist) Theravada Buddhism is that people save. (Well, I would not even words to return Japanese temple that advocates and Mahayana Buddhism? Are you doing what is said)
/ Note: A Mahayana Buddhism, the teachings were born for the purpose of training the relief and altruistic people, from about 500 years after the death of the Buddha, Tibetan Mahayana Buddhism, China, South Korea and Japan.
Thailand also, in recent years, the practice of compassion for the needy people, people who "monk" development that (along Umi-hatsu) is slightly broken but sensible. Also priest who created the AIDS hospice in Pabanapu temple here was one of them.
According to the books, etc., here is medical discrimination, it was the AIDS hospice care for the sick AIDS patients that were discarded from the family. In the Temple, it was to build a facility on its own, that we practice care for the sick, such as those facing a death in peace.
I think you have empathy, and if there is anything that can help, he was armed with this research began to donate some of NPO Uni.
For every can see for yourself what is important
On the other hand, he heard and spoke with the first time around will change a lot here too, or they will be systematically completely and rumors from residents of Bangkok Well, there is such thing as has become a tourist destination more .
First of all, you will have to go to the actual site, but I do not even know what each. Sometimes people think bad things good.
I understand it, from my own experience actually. I know my own, and that there are people who speak ill of me at any rate. (Laughter quite vain,,, apart from here and Tahaha, I There 's not a man is his thought is good,,, (☍ ﹏ ⁰),,, tears actually)
At times like that, but in my head, what on earth resound?So, it is a song that was a hit a long time ago of Linda Yamamoto.
"Gotta believe the rumors, dont mind having a valence of ~ ♬. ~ ♩ Sa of naive" once again (shake, shake old was vogue!. Has, I wonder if it was the time of the junior high school students who came back from New York . might have remember pop songs to listen for the first time in three years, but for a while because it was Natsukashika~tsu)
I think anyway, I is not, it hurts to see for yourself as well do something with each such Well, he was came.
To be honest, I did not think so, however.
Get assistance
Carrying the cart I got to the office, from the inside, looked like human patients and staff came out and gave me to serve. I told him why, he had come.
First, I wonder if this person is that it wants a little troublesome grass, that I come from? I think I was. But it can not be helped even if such a thing to worry about though. Anyway, I got that he guided me.
But not so large site, and get guidance on site, there is a lot of cottage, there was also what the bank's ATM to convenience stores, and coffee shops. (Later, Why is there ATM, I know why)
When asked, 160 people have tenants currently have 25 staff. Although not a doctor, a nurse called there. In an infection HIV, some people that they do have staff people who do not get sick again.
said it is building a 1,500-seat AIDS village where currently, the person who died is also 85km away, in about 10 people a month.
I also got a tour of the terminally ill patient ward. Before entering the room wearing a mask, I had to wipe your hands with antiseptic solution.
We had 10 people the number of patients. There were many people in mostly bedridden AIDS patient-specific spots appear on the body.
<Ward of terminally ill patients>
However, I have a mask, so can not speak Thai, I was hard to warm up. For some reason, there was a dog in the room.
In some other rooms that were collected by the mummy enshrined in the body, had been published there too.
<To become a mummy, donor body>
Do you accept volunteers? And the question is, was that "Well I do not know. If you do not try to apply" with. Such as volunteer enters room, looked unlikely to be too much.
I told him I am, and I want to come but placing the donations from Uni NPO after I had a street guide.
I was less ready baht (Thai money) was down money in the bank ATM located on site. Office dedicated to exceptional reception worthy donation, he gave me a tour.
<Office receptionist donation>
<Prayers donation was written>
<San mass guided me. Did Tsutawa~tsu feeling here is, from the middle made me quite favorably>
Then, return to the office, I got a phone call at (motorcycle taxi) Motasai. While waiting at the checkpoint, stand two large buses arrived and came down tourists and Thai people from among the following.
<Checkpoint near the entrance>
<Our tourists come down from the large bus>
I was here to understand the meaning of the rumors that the tourist attraction it so. (ATM's have been put in the temple of Thailand tourism, was one of those things)
In short, by many tourists who come to visit in the tour, we will put the money in the donation, he was here hospice are being operated. He guided me to me, might always have to deal with tourists maybe. So, I thought, how it is not likely to have seen is lightly bother me a moment, he came to visit in person.
It, depending on how you look at it might be wonderful management strategy. To me that in any case, does not really care for the sick with AIDS, would be entitled to say what.
Bike taxi came, I was after the AIDS hospice. Thus, the last mission of the trip was over.
<Had to introduce myself in Japanese, and "Uncle" Uncle of this rickshaw>
Baggage in the inn, go to the station Lopburi. But no problem can go walking, rickshaw so we have invited, I rode in a relationship. Sa ー what I mean. It is love. Na man and can not afford, to feeling. (What you ←, Nikki do sagging Toru patronizingly lecturing)
While you purchase a ticket, waiting for the train, I ate soba stalls in front of the station. While you are eating, chopsticks I was suddenly stopped remembering we saw earlier, the mummy of the body.
At lunch on this day, I left the meat.
